RB5009 upload problem

Sun Nov 13, 2022 9:41 pm

Hi. I'm having trouble getting my full ISP upload speed routed through the RB5009 (non-PoE version). Download is fine, but my upload consistently tests between 200Mbps and 300Mbps. My speeds as quoted by the ISP (Bell Aliant in Atlantic Canada) are 1Gbps down, 940Mbps up. The only configuration required to connect to my ISP is a DHCP client running on VLAN 35.
I currently have Bell's GPON ONT SFP module plugged directly into the SFP+ port, but have also tried using a gigabit media converter, as well as a 2.5Gbps media converter consisting of an OEO and 2.5Gbps RJ45 SFP+ module. All methods of connecting the RB5009 I've tried give the same slow upload speed.

I know people in the area who have the same ISP and plan, and are using a hEX S that I personally configured for them, who consistently get their full upload speed.
If I do a BTest to TomjNorthIdaho's public server running directly on the RB5009, I get 1.28Gbps down, 850Mbps up (bi-directional UDP mode). If I do the same test, but running off of a device on the LAN (2.5G RJ45 port), I get ~1.2Gbps down, and 200Mbps or so up. The strange thing is that if I run tests to something like Ookla's speedtest.net from multiple devices on the LAN, I am able to get a combined upload of over 800Mbps when the upload tests are done simultaneously.

Currently I have bridge filtering and a few different subnets set up, but I've tried resetting to a fresh default config with just the basics to get a connection to my ISP with no change.
Does anyone have any thoughts on what might be going wrong?

Try test speed by conecting cable from provider directly to laptop, because this may be not a RB5009 problem.

Without knowing your configuration, we would only be guessing. To export and paste your configuration (and I'm assuming you are using WebFig or Winbox), open a terminal window, and type (without the quotes) "/export hide-sensitive file=any-filename-you-wish". Then open the files section and right click on the filename you created and select download in order to download the file to your computer. It will be a text file with whatever name you saved to with an extension of .rsc. Open that file in your favorite text editor and redact any sensitive information if desired / needed. Then in your message here, click the code display icon in the toolbar above the text entry (the code display icon is the 7th one from the left and looks like a square with a blob in the middle). Then paste the text from the file in between the two code words in brackets.

Im in HRM, I have bell, I get 950 up and down.
What modem are you using?
I am using their office/business modem NOT the home hub hunk of junk.
This has ethernet out which goes to a standard ethernet port.
WE CANNOT USE GPONS like they do in Ontario in other words no direct fibre in.

Thus
a. do not bypass their modem
b. use a standard gig port

Speed test is fine if I use the ISP supplied router, as well as if I use a hEX S instead. Don't have any other routers lying around to test that can handle gigabit.
Here is my config.

@anav Yes, I am bypassing the modem. I've done this for a few different people on a hEX S with Bell-Aliant, and it works fine with full gigabit speed both ways. I just pull the optical module out of the HH3K, plug it into the SFP port, and set up a DHCP client on vlan35 as my WAN. It just doesn't seem to want to work correctly on my RB5009. I've attached a picture of the label on the optical module I am using (Edit: looks like I'm currently unable to upload attachments.); it says GPON ONT SFP Class I Laser on the first line. It was my understanding that the main difference between our fibre and what Bell provides in Ontario, is that ours doesn't use PPPoE. Is there something else I am missing?

Perhaps not, interesting though. I have SFP and SFP+ on my ccr1009, may give it a whirl sometime.
My ONT is in the picture. It probably has some sort of serial number or mac address and not convinced I can replace it with a cage gpon that replaces the ONT with no mac address or serial number. Perhaps the oNT I have is just a dummy device to turn fibre into ethernet???.

How did you decide on which gpon you would buy?

As for GPON, read this link, as it explained at the time why it would not work.........

@anav The HH3K comes with a GPON installed; I did not purchase anything separately. The SFP latching mechanism tends to get stuck on the plastic housing, so you sometimes have to undo a few screws to get it out of the HH3K. I expect that either serial number for the GPON, or some other information stored directly on the GPON, is registered with my account. I doubt this can just be replaced, but that is just my speculation.
The recent 7.7beta4 release enabled proper 2.5G SFP module support for RB5009 (the ones that do 2.5G but not 5 or 10); this is what is giving me the >gigabit download speeds. Quite happy about that, now if only I could figure out why the upload is behaving strangely.
Just to clarify, the internet upload speed with my RB5009 has been slow with previous stable releases as well, I've just not bothered to try to figure out what was going on until now.

Re: RB5009 upload problem

I dug out the old ISP modem today, installed the GPON into that instead of the RB5009, and tested with the RB5009 behind it (with the RB5009 still performing NAT), and the problem persists. Really not sure what the issue is, as I can replicate it by simply using defconf and setting up a DHCP client for WAN.

Has anybody seen anything like this?

you might have more luck asking

here https://www.dslreports.com/forum/sympat
or here https://www.dslreports.com/forum/sympatdirect

maybe your profile is wrong on bell side, thing is i think they are actively replacing the 3k serie with the 4k one which have no spf or way to do what your doing so if you raise the issue you can expect to "lose" your 3k

Do you get full speeds using a 1G port on your lan / 5009 instead of the 2.5G port?
